After leaving her {{TP|May|Beautifly}} and her {{TP|May|Skitty}} in [[Hoenn]], she met up with {{Ash}} in [[Pallet Town]], where one of {{an|Professor Oak}}'s {{p|Squirtle}} took a liking to her. When it did not want to go in Professor Oak's [[Poké Ball]], he allowed it to travel with May, so it went in her Poké Ball instead.

May's Squirtle is distinct from [[Ash's Squirtle]], as it is much younger and smaller, mainly because it was intended to be a [[starter Pokémon]]. Squirtle started out relatively shy and was a bit of a crybaby. It has considerably grown since its first appearance, crying less and competing in more Contests. As a Wartortle, it showed a more boisterous and fun-loving attitude, no signs of the tears that defined it as a Squirtle.
